NumPy and SciPy - Difference between .todense() and .toarray()

People also ask

What is Toarray () in Python?

toarray returns an ndarray; todense returns a matrix. If you want a matrix, use todense ; otherwise, use toarray .

What is Todense in Python?

todense(order=None, out=None)[source] Return a dense matrix representation of this matrix. Parameters order{'C', 'F'}, optional. Whether to store multi-dimensional data in C (row-major) or Fortran (column-major) order in memory. The default is 'None', which provides no ordering guarantees.

What is the difference between Numpy array and matrix?

Numpy matrices are strictly 2-dimensional, while numpy arrays (ndarrays) are N-dimensional. Matrix objects are a subclass of ndarray, so they inherit all the attributes and methods of ndarrays.

What does Scipy sparse Csr_matrix do?

The function csr_matrix() is used to create a sparse matrix of compressed sparse row format whereas csc_matrix() is used to create a sparse matrix of compressed sparse column format.
